The United Way Combine Pull

Morden and District United Way Combine Pull

Celebrating 50 years of service to the community

Date – Saturday – August 26th, 2017

This event is in cooperation with the Morden Corn and Apple Festival

How the Pull Works

The combine has a pull rope attached to the front of it for your team to pull on. The back of the combine has a tractor attached by a chain. You do not pull the tractor. It is there to stop the combine and pull it back to the start line for each team.

Your Goal
For your team to pull the combine 30 feet in the shortest possible time!

Your Team
Each team will consist of a maximum of 10 adults (at least 2 of which will be women)
Only 10 teams will be accepted and the deadline for registration is August 11th, 2017

Cost to Enter
The cost is $10.00 per person or $100.00 a team

Prizes
Prizes will be awarded for

the fastest team and

the most spirited team (costumes, a team chant or a theme)

Calcutta
To peak public interest, and have even more fun, teams will be auctioned off. The money raised in the auction will be split 50/50 between the buyer of the winning team and the United Way. So, if you don’t feel up to being a “puller” you can still support your team by becoming involved in the auction and being a “buyer”. (LGA-7016-CA)

Location
Behind the main stage in the parking lot between the Shoppers Drug Mart and the Services of Seniors Center – You can’t miss the combine
